Raymond Lam Buys Red Underwear Briefs To Ward Off Bad Luck
Three years, Raymond Lam (林峰) was a dark horse candidate in winning the Jade Solid Gold “Asia Pacific’s Most Popular Male Singer Award.” Besides winning the same award this year, Raymond also won JSG’s “Golden Melody Gold Award,” for his song Chok, which resulted in much public criticism for the awards results.
Aside from his controversial win at the JSG awards, Raymond Lam also continued to embarrass himself recently. In a Lunar New Year program recording in Guangzhou, Raymond’s crotch may have twitched. Afterward, he acted as if “The Three Gods” (Louis Yuen 阮兆祥, Johnson Li 李思捷, and Wong Cho Lam 王祖藍) were transparent. Raymond even stepped on the 2012 Miss Chinese International contestants’ dresses and toes during the pageant. Encountering numerous troubles recently, Raymond Lam resorted to the most traditional method: buying red underwear to cleanse himself of bad luck!
Raymond Lam Causes Stir When Buying Red Calvin Klein Briefs
Wearing a winter coat, a cap, and glasses, Raymond Lam appeared at a Calvin Klein store by himself the day before. During the checkout process, Raymond asked the female clerk for 3 boxes of red Calvin Klein briefs in medium size, as well as several packs of white cotton short-sleeved undershirts. Due to his unstoppable “chok” charisma, Raymond attracted the smiling attention of the surprised saleswomen, who took the opportunity to chat with the idol of millions of people.
On that day, Raymond dressed in a low-key manner, deliberately bringing the visor of his cap close to his face. Faced with the saleswomen’s warm welcome, he reciprocated with his “chok” smile. During the waiting period, Raymond also went to the women’s underwear section to glance for 1 minute, before returning to his originial spot. Was it possible that Raymond may have considered purchasing a gift for TVB executive, Virginia Lok (乐易玲)?
At the request of the shop clerks, Raymond took several photos with them before departing with a shopping bag full of loot. [Spotting the reporter], Raymond appeared to realize that his intention of wearing red underwear to turn his bad luck was discovered. Without saying a word and an embarrassed smile, Raymond boarded a $600,000 HKD 7-passenger Toyota vehicle and left the scene.
Excerpt from Apple Daily
Jayne: I’m sure many Hong Kong celebrities have a habit of wearing red underwear, to increase their luck. So Andy Lau, Ruco Chan, Raymond Lam all wear red Calvin Klein briefs, which are known for their soft cotton.
me too,,, I bought red underwear last week,,,,, somehow some point seem like I have something in luck hihihi
I would prefer LF to wear non, hihihi
But if he went commando, it might be too obscene. Remember how people complained about his tight pants in MoL?
Like in this article, they said his crotch twitched during the guangzhou show. I didn’t see that but his 3 piece suit did look like it was gonna burst soon. It must have been made of some spandex material for it to keep stretching while he danced. Quite amazing.
I don’t get what the article is trying to imply by wondering if he’s looking at women’s underwear for Miss Lok?? haha
Amusing. Why would he buy underwear for Virginia Lok ?
I think he was looking for something for his mom instead since he’ll be going back to his family for CNY. Or he saw something interesting at the women’s section. I would look at the guys clothes sections if I saw something I find interesting cause I love fashion and look at all clothes.
Why would a son buy underwear for his mom? And the idea of ms. Lok is just as gross.
Maybe ray has been lonely and just wanted to see what he’s missing. Cuz I’m sure last yr, PSS bought him the red underwear. This yr he has no girl to do that stuff for him. Poor baby.
Ms. Lok has some really sick ideas… Even if mother and son are close, it is sooo awkward for a son to buy his mom underwear. That is more for husband and wife or something…
Yeah, I guess it is weird for a son to buy undy for mom, but I didn’t think of that cause I’m a daughter. LOLS It’s not awkward if daughter buys undy for parents.
please stop wearing yankee caps. It’s not the look for you Raymond. he probably doesn’t even know it’s a yankee cap
Ah, no, he does know the Yankees…. Who are you make that comment (even though Id didn’t give him that cap…….. but still), shame on you for saying that…
Wish Lam Fung has a happy and successful year.
Hehe, I’ve always considered red underwear to be for seduction and not for good luck. Overall, I see red as more of a color of sex rather than good fortune. This is a western color association though.
The bride in china w
The bride in china wearsred while the western ones rare to never use this color for the wedding dress. Same to white color. In china it’s for death but in western country they wear it on wedding. Now have cultural crossing but red is still lucky to chinese
Red Calvin Klein underwear must be hot in Hong Kong…I can imagine it’s a hot sales item during this time of year.
I wouldn’t mind if ray did a print ad showing us his Calvin’s. 🙂
He said he considering crystal swimming suit for his next concert, but I doubt he dare to do that haha
What’s up with the hipster glasses? ROFL please stop Raymond, just stop.
He’s just so worth a news! Rotten Apple can’t live without him LOL
… his crotch… twitched…? o.O WTF. i’m sorry- but how did they frikkin catch tht??????????? does anyone have an article on tht?
I dun noe too until they mention on this artcke and look back to the clip but cant find. Hmm must ask the MCIs to know if they were stepped or not :p
Maybe not for Ms Lok, but ….. for his new girl. 😉
In the above photo, it looks like he’s about to take out a gun and rob the shop for more underwear. Haha.
I like the idea
I was thinking the same thing!! LOLS. Except he’s not wearing the right gear. He should have dressed like he did in his drama with Charmaine.
I don’t think wearing red underwear will ward off bad luck. Some people are just too superstitious..Also, if you wanted to ward off bad luck, wouldn’t you want to wear something on the outside so that it is visible?? No one can see your underwear…
Haha… I wear red on the inside and outside. It just makes u feel good. 🙂
Wear outside = superman
@fox: “Wear outside = superman” Lol! good one!
Good one Fox! That would look like superman…
Buying a woman’s underwear for Ms. Lok? Is the reporter hinting that they have something together? Has other reports implied this before?
I know this is like making fun of him but I am just curious.
With rotten apple everything is possible. But guess they only means he is biological son as they always mean so
@Fox,You might look back to the clip start with MCI # 25 just a bit,Ray said it’s not his fault…(seem like.)
Seeing.
So how do we know that Ray did look at the womens undy section? The reporter wrote that, but no one else saw or said it. Who knows if it was made up? Wonder if he’ll get asked about this cause I’d like to know how he’s gonna reply.
Wow this is a news in Hong Kong?
I guess they are running out of things to write about or something…
Hong kongese loves calvin Klein. I should wear my red indie too.
